Google Chromecast 4 Sabrina is gearing up for a price war against Roku Streaming Stick Plus and Amazon Fire Stick. The new Android TV dongle could cost just $ 50, and it could be in stores as of September 30.
The Google Sabrina price is lower than expected, even below the previous model, the third-generation Chromecast Ultra. And it matches the retail price of the Roku Streaming Stick Plus and the Amazon Fire TV Stick 4K. Industry experts believed that the new Chromecast device would cost around $ 80.
The Sabrina is a major revision of the Chromecast streaming device and is Google’s first in-house Android TV device since the Nexus Player. The dongle has a sleek new oval-shaped design and a remote control, which will make the device easier to use. Sabrina’s release was recently confirmed by FCC filings.
9to5Google.com found Sabrina’s price on a since-deleted listing on the Home Depot website, and Droid-Life also found a listing at Walmart for $ 60. Android Police Reporter spotted it for $ 60 at Target, as well as a September 30 release date.
The leaks have also revealed the names of the three different colors of the dongle: Summer Melon, Rock Candy, and Como Blue. The former appears to be the pinkish hue seen in the leaked marketing images, while the latter two could be similar to the Google Nest Mini’s Chalk and Sky colors.
Along with a hardware redesign, the new Chromecast device will support 4K and is also expected to come with a new version of Android TV called Google TV. The new user interface includes YouTube TV and Nest integration, as well as Google Assistant functions. Previous leaks have indicated that the new interface will resemble the Fire TV home screen.
